Emirates Park's homebred EJAABIYAH (GB) (Frankel {GB}) is a Roger Varian-conditioned daughter of G1 Golden Slipper heroine Estijaab (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus}), who encounters nine rivals in this unveiling. Team Gosden has won the last three renewals of this heat and is represented here by Godolphin homebred Juneberry (Ire) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}). She is out of G2 Lancashire Oaks victrix and G1 Prix Vermeille second Pomology (Arch) and thus kin to G3 Zetland S. victor and G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud third Goldspur (Aus) (Dubawi {Ire}). Completing a trio of well-related debutantes is Charlie Fellowes representative Mohave Dancer (Ire) (Kingman {GB}), who is a 300,000gns Tattersalls October Book 2 daughter of G1 Queensland Oaks heroine Winning Ways (Aus) (Declaration Of War). Memento Vivere Racing's once-raced Rouge Sellier (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) posted a debut third over this trip at Haydock at the end of last month and hails from the stable of Sir Mark Prescott. The 260,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 acquisition is a three-parts sister to G1 Cheveley Park S. winner Lumiere (GB) (Shamardal) and GI E. P. Taylor S. victrix Sheikha Reika (Fr) (Shamardal). Another set to make the trip up the A11 from Newmarket is Michael Bell trainee Climate Action (GB) (Cracksman {GB}), who is a half-sister to three black-type performers out of a half-sister to five-time Group 1 winner and multiple Classic heroine User Friendly (GB) (Slip Anchor {GB}). She comes back off a runner-up finish, behind subsequent G1 Fillies' Mile seventh Seaward (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), in a one-mile test at Ascot last month. Climate Action's stakes-placed half-sister Madame Defarge (Ire) (Motivator {GB}) won this contest for the Bell yard in 2012.
